Outside of the Frames: Green Tea time thoughts

So everyday, I drink at least two cups of green. I have been drinking green tea for years. It is my favorite drink! It has so many wonderful benefits for the body.

I was reading about green tea on a website and came across this piece of info, which was a surpise to me

The only harmful effects "from drinking, green tea is insommia due to the fact that it contains caffeine." Which is probably why I cannot every seem to sleep.I usually drink green tea in the evening to relax. Maybe I should try drinking green tea only in the morning and stick with water for the rest of the day.

have a wonderful day !

Late night thought!! 


So I just watched "A Thousand Words" with Eddie Murphy, Clark Duke and a bunch more wonderful actors. It got me thinking what would I say if I only had thousand words left to say. I would tell all the wonderful people in my life how much I loved them and how they have helped be grow into the person I am now, then I would encourage them to do amazing things with there lives and I would do something for each to show them how much they mean to me. I would also tell my ex I am sorry how things ended and how I pushed him away. He is a good guy at heart and he deserves to know the truth. I was afraid to open up to him. Relationships scare me for so many reasons.  Its funny how some movies really hit you. I would totally recommend the movie!! What would you do? If you only had a thousand words left to say? write a comment or just think about it for awhile!!

sending my love to all of you 

Random late night thought!

Is it just me or am I the only person, at a young age who never liked wearing glasses. As a child I had glasses for about 5 mins. I decided they were not cool enough for society and my standards. Yeah I know it was silly but hey !! I was young and it happens. I guess the real reason I never liked glasses was because they never looked cool enough. At school I would be no one, if caught wearing glasses. Its funny how things like wearing glasses can get to a person. Over the years and as I have been growing up and now attending university. I think back to thoughs days and how I had such silly ideas. Glasses look great on people and make a person look smart and sophisticated. Only people with true inner confidence can pull them off.

On another note

One day I was talking with a few friends and we arrived at the topic of wearing glasses and how they would actually pretend to have bad eye sight just so they could have glasses. Funny right, I thought so. My best friend actually wears fake glasses in class because she feels more sophisticated.
So here I am years later wearing glasses and loving ever minute of it. Funny how things workout. If only I wore my glasses back in the day it would of helped me so much. I could have seen so much more well I guess we live and learn.

Bye for now until next time. 

Hello Beautiful world

I always find myself having new and creative ideas around 1 am. Such as this blog, which will hopefully be a new journey for you to join me on.
